My friend, Noelle, shared this recipe on Facebook yesterday, and it had me salivating. I just happened to be going out to Wegman's so I picked up everything I didn't already have to make this Cucumber Salsa. We had it today as a little appetizer and, can I just say, there is just something I love about cucumber salads. Just regular cucumbers are good, but you add a little this and a little that, and I just can eat a whole bowl! (My mother-in-law makes a fantastic cucumber salad that I need to get the recipe for -- it's not anything like this, but I think it's what enticed me to want to make this one). I just LOVE the flavors in this, and shockingly, even Catherine liked it (I didn't tell her about the jalapeno until after she said she liked it... lol). This is definitely a nice, light treat for the summer!
